Managing the challenges of post approval change complexity is a big problem globally that not only hinders innovation and continual improvement but also can impact product availability and therefore, public health.
PDA has announced its program to reduce hurdles to pharmaceutical manufacturing innovation caused by disparate national regulations that discourage changes.
PDA’s PAC iAM program strives to identify — assess — and address current barriers to implementation of post approval changes that are intended to ensure continued operations, drive innovation and continual improvement. Addressing these barriers will better ensure and sustain reliable global supply and availability of product to patients through the entire commercial lifecycle of a product.
Join PDA task force members Denyse Baker, Emma Ramnarine, Melissa Seymour and Dr. Anders Vinther on Feb. 8 when they’ll discuss the task force objectives in tackling the issue of drug shortages.
PDA's task force has the following objectives:
• Bring awareness to current challenges and enable stronger collaboration amongst opinion leaders and key stakeholders — within industry, regulatory authorities and other relevant stakeholder forums
• Foster a science and risk-based approach to PAC management and regulatory decision making for global product quality, safety, and efficacy assessments
• Encourage international convergence / standardization in PAC management in a manner that can foster and enable mutual reliance between regulatory authorities
• Manage PACs through the use of an effective Product Quality Systems (PQS)
Attend this 90-minute interactive webinar to hear more about this initiative and to provide feedback and ideas to the task force directly.
